Irwin “Fletch” Fletcher (Chevy Chase) is an undercover newspaper reporter investigating excess drug trafficking on the beach. The police and high-ranking officials might be involved. What’s going on in this city? While Fletch is sleuthing, Alan Stanwyk (Tim Matheson) offers him 50K to kill him. It’s an insurance thing! Through a series of amazing disguises, one-liners, stealth and a bit of luck, Fletch is going to do his best to put all of these pieces together and to get his story out on time. “Bit by bit. One way or another.” Also, he needs to borrow Gail’s (Dana Wheeler-Nicholson) towel because his car just hit a water buffalo. RTS shows you that it’s all done with ball bearings. Jeremy, Collin and La-Mar saw a manure-spreader that jackknifed on the Santa Ana. God awful mess. You should see their shoes. Enjoy this film with “a Bloody Mary, a steak sandwich and a steak sandwich.”
